Method Detail

getBatchSize

public int getBatchSize()

Description copied from interface: RpcClient

Returns the maximum number of events that may be batched at once by appendBatch().

Specified by:

getBatchSize in interface RpcClient

Overrides:

getBatchSize in class AbstractRpcClient

append

public void append(Event event)
            throws EventDeliveryException

Description copied from interface: RpcClient

Send a single Event to the associated Flume source.

This method blocks until the RPC returns or until the request times out.

Note: If this method throws an EventDeliveryException, there is no way to recover and the application must invoke RpcClient.close() on this object to clean up system resources.

Specified by:

append in interface RpcClient

Specified by:

append in class AbstractRpcClient

Throws:

EventDeliveryException - when an error prevents event delivery.

appendBatch

public void appendBatch(List<Event> events)
                 throws EventDeliveryException

Description copied from interface: RpcClient

Send a list of events to the associated Flume source.

This method blocks until the RPC returns or until the request times out.

It is strongly recommended that the number of events in the List be no more than RpcClient.getBatchSize(). If it is more, multiple RPC calls will be required, and the likelihood of duplicate Events being stored will increase.

Note: If this method throws an EventDeliveryException, there is no way to recover and the application must invoke RpcClient.close() on this object to clean up system resources.

Specified by:

appendBatch in interface RpcClient

Specified by:

appendBatch in class AbstractRpcClient

Parameters:

events - List of events to send

Throws:

EventDeliveryException - when an error prevents event delivery.

isActive

public boolean isActive()

Description copied from interface: RpcClient

Returns true if this object appears to be in a usable state, and it returns false if this object is permanently disabled.

If this method returns false, an application must call RpcClient.close() on this object to clean up system resources.

Specified by:

isActive in interface RpcClient

Specified by:

isActive in class AbstractRpcClient

close

public void close()
           throws FlumeException

Description copied from interface: RpcClient

Immediately closes the client so that it may no longer be used.

Note: This method MUST be called by applications when they are done using the RPC client in order to clean up resources.

Multi-threaded applications may want to gracefully stop making RPC calls before calling close(). Otherwise, they risk getting EventDeliveryException thrown from their in-flight calls when the underlying connection is disabled.

Specified by:

close in interface RpcClient

Specified by:

close in class AbstractRpcClient

Throws:

FlumeException

configure

protected void configure(Properties properties)
                  throws FlumeException

Description copied from class: AbstractRpcClient

Configure the client using the given properties object.

Specified by:

configure in class AbstractRpcClient

Throws:

FlumeException - if the client can not be configured using this method, or if the client was already configured once.
